did they do just the solenoid or the entire valve body?

Sorry just seen your message I'll look for the receipt today so I can tell you exactly what they did.

Hey bro how's it going I have a 12 with 235000 miles. The only problem I had was a couple months ago. My car felt like it wanted to to stall when I would take off from stops. So I changed my cvt fuild a couple times hoping it would get better and it was slowly getting worse. So I called Subaru and told them what was happening soil took it in. And it turned out to be a one of my solenoid was bad. And they replaced for $1500 and I haven't had a problem since.

Just out of curiosity have any of the higher mileage CVT owners changed the CVT fluid in their cars?

Well, you're past the 7/31/18 deadline, and well over the 100,000 mile limit, so unfortunately, you may end up footing the bill for this one yourself. Your options are likely to replace the torque converter (assuming that's the problem, you'd want to do some diagnosis first) or drop in a lower-mileage used transmission- your choice, probably worth looking into both to see how much each route would cost you.

What do you mean 7/31 deadline? An thanks for the suggestion on the torque convert I'll look into it. I'm trying to make an appointment to get it looked at.
